Bournemouth are owned by a Russian billionaire, they've not got themselves promoted on a shoe-string.

Crap game, Reading struggled to create much and were quite sloppy in possession, Norwich offered nothing. First goal was a great bit of poaching from Samuel though to pick the pocket of the full back, and we nearly scored a second with a repeat. Second goal from an mildly amusing game of head tennis...

Free entry at madejski tonight, who's going?

Yet our record earlier in the season when more of them where in and around the first team wasn't that bad...

Weird how football works.

I was thinking of making the same joke, decided it was a bit too europhobic in the end.

Elm Park and? Green park?

Kuhl is a totally different type of midfielder to Tish, they complimented each other well in the youth setup. Whether Kuhl can play without a Tish type next to him is looking to be his big test.

Looking like a good draw atm

Rotherham have tested us

Sounds a bit Rotherham have us worked out

Ahhh. so not a volley as it sounded from Dellor and Quinn.

Half volley I suppose, balls not on the ground

genome Obita dropped to the bench for any reason, or just rested for a bit?

Attacking bench, by the way.

Rested I imagine

Ola John mind...

Too many loanees isn't it... Taylor, Hector, Piazon, Vydra, Fernandez... (Hurtado?), John.

We own Hurtado

He's light weight, but up that end of the pitch if you have the skill to play the passes he does that doesn't really matter that much. He'll learn how to hold off defenders/draw fouls with games.

Couldn't you have a dedicated line for that? So three lines: 1) reading to Basingstoke 2) Basingstoke to reading 3) shuttle line Then you could have a train just pinging back and forth. Theoretically yes, but the cost of the land for the extra line + cost of extra track + cost of extra signalling +...

JC Interesting point. Why are we being shown as second when we have an identical record to Boro. I thought it was alphabetical then.

Head to Head?

I propose a heathrow style pod system following the rail line out of Reading.

Only problem I see with buses at the moment, is that no one who gets buses seems to be able to stay to the end of the game?

LumpWarden Wonder whether the stadium will now also change it's name to 'Royal Elm Park' - thereby using the stadium name to advertise the associated conferencing facilities etc?

IN.

I think i'd prefer a bowling alley, but other than that sounds sweet.

I have no idea how they'll fit it all in unless there's some other land they own...

Sky have noticed us!
